Genesis 42:32-34

Lexham English Bible

³² We are twelve brothers, the sons of our father. One is no more and the youngest is with our father now in the land of Canaan.’ ³³ Then the man, the lord of the land, said to us, ‘By this I will know that you are honest. Leave one brother with me, and take food for the famine in your households and go. ³⁴ And bring your youngest brother to me. Then I will know that you are not spies but you are honest. And I will give your brother back to you, and you will trade in the land.’”
